Sorry dudes,

Gotta wax the stems and wanted to know if the ladies have found any waxing materials around Namdeamun....most especially NADS...that Aussie waxing stuff was awesome and effective.

So, if you've seen it, or know where the Koreans keep the NADS let me know.

Seriously!!! Im tired of spending 30,000 every month.

Thanks!

anyway...ANYONE KNOW?? any waxing stuff anywhere?

considering they've only just started stocking ladies' razors here in the last few years, and that women here shave their eyebrows, I think the chances of finding such products are nill.

Try ordering direct or getting someone to buy for you.

Actually, you can buy hair removal stuff in Namdaemun.

OR

Go to Lotte Mart and get it for 10-12,000 won.

Great stuff!

I shaved my nether regions, my girlfriend's mustache, and my dog with it!

I looked at the website - you can buy it online if you click on lucky box numberrrr 05...

then click on the skincomplex link....

but it's sold out!!!

FYI when I was on holiday in Western Australia in January, I brought back a pot of Nair wax (AUD20), and the great thing about it is you don't need all the paper/cloth strips -- you just rip the wax off by itself. Worth checking out. (Well, good luck finding it in Korea, anyhow...)

I can't help you with nads but you can buy the pre-waxed strips in a lot of places here-I've seen them in many drugstores and those beauty supply shops.

yeah, the waxing strips you can get in stores like watson's and olive young. they have nair and veet i believe. they work quite good. there's a watson's in myeong dong on the main drag where you can get them.

So a google search for "sugaring". You can make you own product for a few won. Go to Namdamun and buy a meter of thin cotton and cut into to strips and wax away................

I have just found Nad's and MOOM products on gmarket.co.kr
They are both around 40, 000won a pot!!

Nad's: http://www.gmarket.co.kr/challenge/neo_goods/goods.asp?goodscode=106435252 (there is also a 3500won off coupon) - U.S. infomerical included on the page!

Moom: http://www.gmarket.co.kr/challenge/neo_goods/goods.asp?goodscode=107564058

Foreigners are able to register (no need fot ARC number) and order.

I don't know anything about sugaring - is it as easy and effective as waxing? Any places on your body that it just can't remove the hair like waxing can?
